OK, 1 month to go to meet the St. Paul Science
Museum/Shapiro deadline for having my robots build the
first proto - robocity. I've been working like a phene,
but chances are I'm not going to meet the Nov 8th
deadline. Right now I'm about a month behind and I really
didn't understand how much infrastructure had to be in
place - it's amazing. I could put 2 or 3 guys to work and
still not make it.

But that is neither here nor there, I've got a month,
I've found an arm design I like for the first robot so
I've started throwing the electronics together and
programming it. I've got a real good idea of what needs
to be done and what corners to cut. and the game ain't
over.
